This disclosure generally relates to the use of enzyme combinations or recombinant microbes comprising same to make isoprenoid precursors, isoprenoids and derivatives thereof including prenylated aromatic compounds. Novel metabolic pathways exploiting Claisen, aldol, and acyloin condensations are used instead of the natural mevalonate (MVA) pathway or 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate (DXP) pathways for generating isoprenoid precursors such as isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP), dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP), and geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP). These pathways have the potential for better carbon and or energy efficiency than native pathways. Both decarboxylative and non-carboxylative condensations are utilized, enabling product synthesis from a number of different starting compounds. These condensation reactions serve as a platform for the synthesis of isoprenoid precursors when utilized in combination with a variety of metabolic pathways and enzymes for carbon rearrangement and the addition / removal of functional groups. Isoprenoid alcohols are key intermediary products for the production of isoprenoid precursors in these novel synthetic metabolic pathways. These precursors can be modified to various isoprenoid products through prenyl transferase, terpene synthase, or terpene cyclases. The production of prenylated aromatic compounds is achieved through prenyl transfer of the hydrocarbon units of isoprenoid precursors to polyketides.

The present invention provides for a genetically modified microbial strain capable of growing or dividing in a medium comprising equal to or more than about 4.5 g / L isoprenol, or having an increased tolerance to isoprenol compared to a unmodified microbial strain.

A process for recovering isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde from a stream of crude isoprenol containing isoprenol, water and formaldehyde, the process comprising subjecting the stream of crude isoprenol or an isoprenol containing fraction thereof to distillation in a low-boiler separation tower operated at a pressure of 2.5 bara or higher to obtain a distillate stream containing aqueous formaldehyde and a bottoms stream containing isoprenol. The process of the invention allows for obtaining isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde. Further provided is a plant for recovering isoprenol essentially free of formaldehyde from a stream of crude isoprenol containing isoprenol, water and formaldehyde, the plant comprising a first low-boiler separation tower, a second low-boiler separation tower, and a finishing tower.

The present invention provides for a method for increasing the production of a short chain alcohol, such as isoprenol or a diol, comprising: (a) providing a microbial strain comprising a genetic circuit comprising a short chain alcohol biosensor which allows growth of the microbial strain only when the microbial strain produces the short chain alcohol is produced, (b) screening for a cell with increased short chain alcohol production, and (c) optionally culturing or growing the cell to produce the short chain alcohol.
